b'You\\u2019ve heard this before\\u2026or, maybe we forgot to include the foreshadowing\\u2026\\n\\nIn today\\u2019s episode, we talk with Chad Corrie (www.chadcorrie.com) about foreshadowing and tying up your story. What information did you feed your readers? Did you give them enough information to keep reading? Does the ending make sense to the characters, writers, and readers?\\n\\nQuote of the week: \\n\\u201cThe way of a man\\u2019s heart will be foreshadowed by what goodness lies in him \\u2013 coming from above, and from around; but a way foreshadowed is not a way made.\\u201d\\n~ Donald G. Mitchell\\n\\nWriting Prompt for the week:\\nUse a sense of foreshadowing to write a short story, novella, or longer about how an unsuspecting, lucky character wins the lottery. We think that winning is all by chance. However, could we do things in our lives to actually lead up to winning a lottery? Pull out the details and become part of the story itself\\u2026Was it belief? Was it luck? Or, was it just where his life was headed? You decide and share it on www.storyinsitute.com, but write and enjoy.\\n\\nIf you are an author in search of readers or have comments about our show, contact us:\\nramblingverser@storyinstitute.com\\n615-431-WRIT (9748)\\n\\n\\nRemember to Imagine, Enhance, and Grow your stories @ www.storyinstitute.com'
